Built Specifically for Roofing
Roofing places different demands on knee protection than work performed on level floors. Roofers need cushioning and support, but they also need knee protection designed around working on angled surfaces.
The FENTO ROOFER was developed with those demands in mind. Its roof-contact surface uses a thick rubber layer with a custom tread pattern and surface texture designed to enhance traction while working on roofing surfaces.
Inside, the three-layer construction balances comfort, support, and durability. The upper layer uses soft, sweat-wicking and compression-resistant PU foam. Beneath it, lightweight EVA foam provides medium-firm support and gradually adapts to the shape of the knee. A durable, water-repellent rubber layer forms the exterior contact surface.
FENTO's signature ergonomic wedge design helps spread pressure over a larger portion of the knee and lower leg, reducing concentrated pressure during prolonged kneeling.
3-Layer Comfort & Support
1. PU Foam Comfort Layer
Soft, sweat-wicking and compression-resistant PU foam provides lasting cushioning during regular professional use.
2. EVA Foam Support Layer
Lightweight, medium-firm EVA foam supports the knee and gradually adapts to its shape over time.
3. High-Traction Rubber Layer
A durable, water-repellent rubber exterior features a custom tread designed to enhance traction on roofing surfaces.

Important Safety Information
The high-traction rubber surface is designed to enhance traction but does not make roofing surfaces slip-proof. Roof pitch, roofing material, debris, moisture, weather conditions, and other jobsite factors can affect traction.
FENTO ROOFER knee pads are knee protection and are not a substitute for required fall-protection equipment, safe roofing procedures, or other applicable workplace safety requirements.
